HELP - Ethidium Bromide contamination

Maniatis doesn't really have any information on how to decontaminate
people - only benches - which involves KMnO4, 2.5N NaOH and 2.5N HCl.
Given the dilution of the Ethidium bromide (assuming a 10mg/ml solution,
1 ml in 1 l is 10 ug/ml) I think that washing with copious water is about
the best possible precution. Effects will probably take years to become
apparent, and I have no idea how carcinogenic EtBr is compared too other
lab chemicals. A supervisor of mine once injected some into his finger
while trying to unload a CsCl gradient, and we just washed that under
cold water to get it to bleed as much as possible.
